I just read this review after a while, beautifully written Voivod (not sure if/when he'll see this).



Edit: Woot woot page break! We are now on the 8th page of the review of FW's 8th album

Has the average been 4.2 for a while or did that happen recently? I'm thinking recently. Damn, nice

Voivod... your review was devoted a whole paragraph in the new Fates Warning book "Destination Onward" -- Page 249. The other couple of reviews quoted were just a few sentences. Congrats. You should buy the book, if only because your work is in it.

I was 100% sure the second paragraph was used.



Thanks for the snapshots Willie!



I would buy the book no matter what, and as a gift to people I hold dear, who are not into metal and who were made FW fans once I introduced the band to them.

No problem. What made you immediately assume that paragraph. When I read it in the book, I figured it was the closing paragraph.

Well, in hindsight and prompted by your prior-to-penultimate (sic) post, I re-read what I had written and I discerned that one can read the second paragraph and have a pretty representative view of the album, without reading anything else from the review.



Also, the said paragraph, essentially being an elaborate/self-sufficient soundoff, can be seamlessly integrated in any text that compiles sovereign points of view, relative to the album.



That’s my two cents about the writer’s train of thought.

Makes perfect sense. Anyway, figured you’d want to know about your inclusion. I was reading it and was like “holy shit, Sputnik is in the book. Wonder who’s review”.

Well, it came out on the 15th. Just saying.... Ha ha. I'll have a review up in the next few weeks.

I accidentally deleted my previous post…



So here it is again…



From a cursory look over the internet, this link looks fine for Europe:

Also it seems that the book is not available on the biggest retailer in Earth…
